Book description
Do you ever look out of your window and dream of lying on a gorgeous
beach with a handsome stranger?Julia Rothwell certainly does. But with a
high-powered job as a Hedge Fund Manager, she barely has time to clean
her teeth let alone go on holiday. Then the credit crunch hits and Julia
is left with nothing but her redundancy pay. Her best friend Reece
encourages her to draw up a list entitled: Ten Things To Do Before I
Die. Top of the list is to sleep with an Italian. So begins a crazy,
wonderful, rollercoaster of an adventure that sees Julia crossing
countries and continents, and experiencing romance and heartbreak, sushi
and surprises, volcanoes and gambling, and - if she can make it to the
end of her list - swimming with dolphins. Join her on her unforgettable
journey! Deborah Wright graduated from Oxford University in 1997 with
a degree in English and did voluntary charity work before becoming a
full-time writer. Her first novel, Olivia's Bliss, was published in 2000
and won the Poolbeg 'Write A Bestseller' competition. When she's not
writing, Deborah enjoys painting, watching movies and travelling. Her
favourite trip was a visit to India in 2006, which partly inspired The
Celebrity Mother.
